Footy Headlines, which first released the images, quotes Puma as saying: "Manchester's music scene has always been an influence on other bands worldwide. The iconic TV program "Top of the Pops" was run by the BBC, from 1964 - 2006, originally recorded in the city itself. The Man City 20-21 third kit takes inspiration from the Paisley floral pattern which was intrinsically associated to the "Brit Pop" music scene of the 1960s and 1990s."

It hasn't gone unnoticed either by some fans that the kit looks quite a lot like certain items from Liam Gallagher's clothing range. He's partial to a bit of paisley. What does the big man himself reckon?
